13 Claims. (Cl. '19830) This application relates to feeding apparatus, particularly apparatus for feeding long, light or heavy objects,

such as billets, bars, slabs, etc. The apparatus is intended to receive-at one time a number of such articles and to deliver themvone at a time to some other apparatus for processing.

Apparatus for accomplishing this is now available. However, such apparatus as is now known is limited to feeding articles which come within a limited range of cross-sectional shapes and sizes. As .is well known, billets, bars, slabs, etc., vary widely in size and shape, with the result that a machine such as is now available which can handle billets cannot handle bars. a machine adapted for slabs cannot handle billets.

My feeding apparatus, on the other hand, adjusts itself automatically within a considerable range to width of materials handled. A certain range can bepre-adjusted manually in a very short period of time when setting up .the machine for materials within respective range limits.

One or more endless conveyors are arranged side by side, depending on length and 'slenderness of sections to be conveyed. Each endless conveyor is supported by two sprockets and each conveyor is considerably longer than the distance between the sprockets so as to form a trough into which a number of bars ,or billets can be loaded at one time. The conveyors then deliver bars or billets from this group one at a time. This is accomplished by providing lugs spaced at intervals along the conveyor, which lugsengage the bars or billets when the conveyor moves and push them one at a time out of the trough onto a holding rack from which they may be lifted ,one at a time and deposited on other apparatus for further processing.

As noted, special arrangements are provided so that the same apparatus can handle objects of different dimensions. Thus as the bars or billets are raised out of the trough formed by the endless conveyor, they ride on skids, the height of which can be adjusted relative to the conveyor flights. If, for example, the machine is adjusted to handle billets 6" square, the skids will be adjustedso that the lugs Likewise,

of .a wide variety of size and shape can be handled on the holding rack.

In the accompanying drawings, I have illustrated a presently preferred embodiment of my invention, in which- Figure 1 is a plan view of two adjoining flights of the embodiment with associated parts;

Figure 11 is a plan view of Figure 10 on the line XI XI with another supporting wall member included forcompleteness; and

Figure 12 is a view similar to that of Figure 10 but representing a short interval of time thereafter;

' Referring principally to Figures 1 and 2, the embodiment comprises two .endless parallel chain conveyors 15 and '16, made up in segments or flights 17. .Someof the flights .have lugs 18 to pick up a billet from those in a trough generally shown at T. A drive sprocket 19 and an idler sprocket 120 support each chain which is -considerably longer than the distance around those sprockets and an idler roller 21. In order to form the trough with the excess lengthand to release the tension .at all times in the upper part of the chain, the sprocket on the conveyor flights extend above the skids slightly less than 6". When the conveyor moves, the lugs will then engage only one billet at a time. If slabs 2" thick are to be handled in the apparatus, then the skids are adjusted so that the lugs project above the skids slightly less than 2". When the conveyor is driven, the lugs will engage only one slab at a time. If the skids had not been adjusted when changing from billets to slabs, then the lugs projecting above the skids almost 6" will engage two or three slabs at a time.

The apparatus for lifting bars or billets from the holding rack comprises plates which are raised up beneath the bars or billets to raise them above a stop on the rack and place them on skids which will deliver them to another machine. The plates are automatically extended by the weight of the bars or billets so that they will engage these articles at least as far as their longitudinal center and thereby lift them over the stop. Since the plates are automatically extendable, bars, billets andslabs rearwardlyof the direction of chain travel ismade the drive sprocket.

The source of the drive isa motor .22 supported on a frame 23 and block 24. The motor turns suitable worm gearing, contained in a gear reduction box 25, through a shaft 26 and coupling 27. The worm gearing includes laterally extending shafts 28 and 29 and couplings 30 which rotate the drive sprockets 19. Support walls 31, 3,2, 33, and 34 suitably secured to a base 35 straddle 'the chains and sustain the bearing flanges 36 .and 37 in which the axles of the drive sprockets are journaled. The support walls also carry the billets and have their upper edges preferably flush with the top surface of the chain flights. Although the preferred practice is .as shown to use two or more chains, it is possible when processing short lengths of billets or ingots to ,useonlyone relatively wide chain.

Angle bars 38, 39, 40, and 41 attached to each support wall support the chain between the sprockets 19 and 20 and generally define its path ,of travel. The legs 42 of the angle bars have slotted bolt holes sothat their position can be adjusted. The support walls vhave a hump 43 at the discharge end of the apparatus over which billets 44 rideto reach a rack 45 having a stop 46. When a number of billets have accumulated on the rack, one of them contacts a limit switch 47 which halts the movement of the chains.

Delivery apparatus is located directly beneath the billets on the rack 45 and consists of two pairs or sets of substantially parallel plates shown generally at 48. The construction and operation of these plates are later described in detail in connection with Figures 10, 11, and

p the free end of the skids.

they drop singly onto other processing equipment such.

as a roller table 59. I

' Figures 3 to 6, inclusive, show'one of the conveyors and the support therefor. Each conveyor comprises a series of flights 17 which, in effect, are links in an endless chain with plates on one side. The flights are spaced from each other by plain links 61 and some of the flights have lugs 18.

As shown in Figures 3 and 4 angle bars 38, 39 and 40 bolted to the side plates 33 and 34 form tracks for the conveyor. These angle bars carry wear plates 63 and 64. On forward movement of the conveyor, the links ride on these wear plates. On return movement of the conveyor, the plates 69 ride on the wear plates.

Figures 7 through 9 show an adjusting mechanism for the skid members whereby articles varying in size and shape over a considerable range may be handled. Skid members 65 and 66 pivot about the support walls, such as 33 and 34, near the bearing 67 for the idler sprocket 20. The width of each skid is tapered at its free end to present a camming surface to the approaching billet. The carnming surface also aids in obtaining a more sensitive control by the adjusting mechanism. -The.latter includes connecting rods 68 and 69 which pivot about The rods in turn pivot about crank arms 76 and 71 secured to a rocking shaft 72 passing transversely through the support walls. A bell crank 73 is also secured to the shaft 72 and has an indicating finger 74 registering with a scale 75 calibrated in any desired units. The remaining end of the bell crank '73 pivotally straddles a trunnion nut 76 mating with a threaded shaft 77 supported by a bearing 78. The shaft 77 terminates in a hand wheel 79. Turning the latter moves the trunnion nut 76 axially on the shaft 77. By means of the described linkages, the skids are rotated about their point of connection to the support walls and may assume, for example, a position 80 shown by the dotted lines. In comparison with the billet 81 shown in contact with a lug 82 when the skids 65 and 66 are in a lowered position, the billet is elevated from the conveyor flights and occupies a new station as shown at 81a along the tip of a lug 82a when the skids are moved to a higher position. Accurate determination of the position of the skids may be made by noting the position of the finger 74 on the calibrated scale 75.

Referring now to Figures 10 through 12, the delivery apparatus is directly below the stop 46 of the rack 45 and consists of two pairs of spaced-apart, substantially parallel plates. The first pair consisting of plates 83 and 84 is placed between the support walls 33 and 34 and secured to an axle 85 journaled for rotation in the walls. The plates 83 and 84 are spaced on the axle 85 at the ends by collars 86 and 87 and in the middle by a U-shaped member 83.

Another pair consisting of plates 89 and Qi) is inserted between the first pair and all four plates pivot on an axle 91. The plates 89 and 90 carry a bar 92 which is preferably convex in a direction toward the billets 44 to aid in the delivery step as hereafter explained. Plates 89 and 90 through an axle member pivot about a ram 49 which is operated in a manner previously described in connection with Figure 2. A spring 93 connects the axle 85 to a pin 94 carried by brackets 95 fixed to the bar 92. The support wall 33 also carries a ledge 96 which supports a limit switch 47 having an arm 97 provided with a follower 98 normally reaching above the rack 45.

Although the preferred practice is to use two pairs or sets of plates, one inserted between the other, to obtain a larger displacing area, it is possible to form delivery apparatus of the present invention using only two plates. in this case one of the plates pivots about the other while the latter pivots about a fixed point. A spring joins the first plate to a point near or coincident with the fixed point.

The delivery apparatus is designed to lift the billets up from the rack 45 above the stop 46 so that they can slide down the rack beyond the stop 46 onto the roller'table 59. As is apparent from Figure 10 of the drawings, the plates 83 and 84- cannot raise the billet above the stop 46 unless they engage the bottom surface of the billet at or beyond the longitudinal center of the billet. If the plates 83 and 84 engage the bottom of a billet at any point between the stop 46 and its longitudinal center, the result will be only to tilt the billet clockwise (viewing Figure 10) up against succeeding billets or to roll it upwardly on the rack 45. In the delivering apparatus just described, the plates 89 and 90 rotate about the axle 91 and project the bar 92 out between the plates 83 and $4 whenever the plates 83 and 84 do not have sufiicient length to extend to orbeyond the longitudinal center line of the particular billets, slabs, bars, etc., being handled. This action, in efiect, extends the length of the upper edge of the plates 83 and 84 so that billets, bars, slabs, etc., regardless of their width, are engaged at or beyond their longitudinal center. It is important that the length of the plates 83 and 84 be thus adjustable, otherwise the delivery apparatus could not handle billets, bars, etc., having a relatively small width. If the plates 83 and 84 initially had sufiicient length to raise the widest billets, slabs, etc., for which the machine was designed, then, if smaller billets or slabs were being handled, the plates 83 and 84 would raise more than one billet or slab at a time.

When a billet is required, the cylinder 56 is actuated to raise the ram 4? which, in turn, will rotate the plates 83 and 84 about the axle 85 until the plates 83 and 84 contact the bottom surface of the-billet on the rack next to the stop 46. Continued upward movement of the ram 49 will then rotate the plates 89 and 90 about the pin 91, this rotation being resisted by the spring 93. The dimension of the billets shown in Figure 10 are such, how ever, that the plates 83 and 34 will engage the bottom surface of the billet which is next to the stop 46 beyond the longitudinal center of the billets so that, as shown in Figure 12, there is very little rotation of the plates 89 and 94 against the action of the spring 93 before the billet 44a is raised up above the stop 46 and can then slide down the upper edges of the plates 83 and 84 onto the lower part of the rack 45, beyond stop 46, and thence onto the roller table 59.

If, however, the delivery apparatus was handling slabs having a considerably greater width than thickness, raising the ram 49 and the plates 83 and 84 up against the bottom surface of such a slab would tend only to tilt the slab clockwise against succeeding slabs. To avoid this, continued upward movement of the ram 49 in the present apparatus rotates the plates 89 and 30 about the axle 91 until the-bar 92 extends a sufiicient distance beyond the upper corner of the plates 83 and 84 to engage the bottom of the slab at or beyond its longitudinal center. After the bar92 had thus been moved out beyond the plates 33 and 84, the action of the mechanism on the slab is the same as shown with respect to a billet in Figure 12 of the drawings.

To insure that the inner pair of plates is never pushed too far about the axle member 91, one or both of the inner plates may have a pin 99 registering in a slot 100 in the plates of the outer pair. The pin 99 prevents further individual rotation of the inner pair about the axle 91 when the pin reaches the upper end of the slot 100.

In an over all operation of the entire'feeding apparatus, a batch of billets is dumped'in irregular order into the trough As the ,motor 22 drives the chains, the billets are tumbledabout in the direction of the arrows 101 iof Figure '2. During this time, one or more billets Kare initially retained by the lugs 18 of themovingflights. If more than one billet is retained, however, the excess falls off as the flight passes between skids 65 and 66 and as the skids elevate the billets from the chains. The extent of this elevation may be regulated by adjusting the position of the skids through the handwheel 79.

When the chains have pushed a suflicient number of billets 44 over the hump 43 to fill the rack toa point Where the arm 97 is depressed, the limit switch 47 opens a circuit stopping the motor 22. Billets are obtained when needed by admitting fluid under, pressure into the cylinder 56 to draw in the piston 55 and operate the ram 49.

After the loadingrack 45 has been sufiiciently emptied to allow the arm 97 to raise, and the limit switch automatically starts the motor 22 again and more billets are fed to the rack 45.
